” To one person its spirit appears as clear as day; to another, shadowy as twilight; to a third, dark as night. He who is not pleased by it does not have to use it, and he who is against it is not obliged to find it true. Let it go forth into the world for the benefit of those who can discern its meaning.” –Jung, Forward to I Ching

Jung became so adept at using dem I Ching that he could predict what Hexagrams – HEX – he would get for dem People he analyzed. (Franz1975) EEk use deen Rune Readings in aanem similar Way thet Jung used deen I Ching n deen Tarot with his Analysands. Rune Readings coach you in your spiritual Growth. Each human Being is oner Clearing dos ToBe (“ToBe” similar Heidggerrian Sein).

“Don Xotinx” (The Gothing, Goting) is the indigenous spiritual process of Northern Europe, which erupts in the form of Gothic Architecture, Books, Music, Art and Movies through out the Ages. In today’s pop culture a New Ager would call his version of this process becoming “Enlightened”. In Jungian terms it would be called the “Individuation” Process where the Alchemical like Archetypes of Vampires, Witches, Wizards, etc. magically transform blood in to the “Exlire of Life” – mortals into “Immortals”. This is what happens to Paul Atreides, the protagonist of Dune, when he drinks the “Water of Life”. Transformed he cries out – “Father … Father the Sleeper has Awakened!” (See “Dune……The Water of Life (Alternate).)

In the medieval Judeo-Christian MATRIX this Xotinx would be condemned as a heresy and Heretics where burned at the stake. Medieval mystics like Meister Eckhart may of transmuted this Xoting to more acceptable Christian terms like “turning to the Godhead” (note the similarity between God, Goth, Got, Gott) but he was still excommunicated by the Vatican. Directors like George Lucas of Star Wars tried to call it the “Force” but the Wachowski Brothers of the “Matrix” realized that the process of breaking out of this Matrix is taking the Red Pill — “turning to the Dark Side”, the Jungian Shadow, the Faustian Mephistopheles, following the God of Dreams – Morpheus. (See “marix-the pill“)

The Canadian psychiatrist Dr. Buck coined the modern term “Cosmic Consciousness“. The Zen Buddhists called it “Satori” and the Chinese called it “The Tao”. The Tibetan yoga Milarepa called it the “Dharamakaya”. In today’s culture the Xotinx is best understood through the philosopher, arguably the greatest philosopher of the 20th century, Martin Heidegger. In Heideggarian terms I would simply call the process “the SILENCE-TO-BE”. rro5ohh

In my opinion, the Runic Divination Ritual is the Xotik/Gothic and Asatru way to become what all humans are – Divine Beings. To transcend the so called Ego and give oneself over to the runic fabric of ToBe by ritually casting the runes is an essential step towards that Divinity. Synchronicity (rr19) the medium of Divination is paradoxically a needed state of consciousness to develop towards oneness with ToBe and is a result of that oneness with ToBe. When you “cast” the Runes not only are you giving yourself over, to the opportunity to get in touch with ToBe or that Transcendental Reality the way you understand it but you also develop spiritual muscles to prepare yourself for the stages of the Journey towards that Transcendental Reality.

One of these Stages is the realization of Karma (rr14 Perthro). When we can start seeing the Tides of our Karma from a State of NoThought (rr13 Æhwaz) then we can start “to turn our will and our lives over to the care of” the “Xoting” the Spiritual Unfoldment towards XotHood (Enlightenment, Cosmic Consciousness)

I use Rune Readings in a similar Way that Jung used d I Ching with his Analysands. A Tiwaz Rune Reading gives you direction in your everyday life by keeping you focused on your spiritual unfolding. In today’s pop culture a New Ager would call it “Enlightenment”. The Canadian psychiatrist Dr. Buck called it “Cosmic Consciousness”. The Zen Buddhists called it “Satori” and the Chinese Taoists called it “The Tao”. The Tibetan yoga Milarepa called it “Dharamakaya”. The medieval Christian mystic MeisterEckhart called it “Godhead” (Gottheit, divinitas). The philosopher Martin Heidegger called it “Sein” (ToBe). A Tiwaz Reading puts you in harmony with that will “ToBe”. rr17ohh
